This will currently accept the old number of bytes syntax, and convert
it to a scalar. This should be removed in the near future (I think I
converted all of the tests already, but likely missed a few).
Not sure what the exact syntax and policy should be. We can continue
printing the number of bytes for non-generic instructions to avoid
test churn and only allow non-scalar types for generic instructions.
This will currently print the LLT in parentheses, but accept parsing
the existing integers and implicitly converting to scalar. The
parentheses are a bit ugly, but the parser logic seems unable to deal
without either parentheses or some keyword to indicate the start of a
type.
Summary:
ConstantExprs involving operations on <1 x Ty> could translate into MIR
that failed to verify with:
*** Bad machine code: Reading virtual register without a def ***
The problem was that translate(const Constant &C, Register Reg) had
recursive calls that passed the same Reg in for the translation of a
subexpression, but without updating VMap for the subexpression first as
translate(const Constant &C, Register Reg) expects.
Fix this by using the same translateCopy helper function that we use for
translating Instructions. In some cases this causes extra G_COPY
MIR instructions to be generated.
